Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Founders Network at 100% against Brex's 46%. Founders Network also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and device support (3 vs 1). Brex's advantage is ratings volume (8.8K vs 3) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
